The zeros is another name for solutions.
x^2 - 5x - 1 = 0
You must use the quadratic formula to find x.
In the formula, a = 1, b = -5 and c = -1.
Plug into formula and solve for x.
The values of x are the zeros of the function.
Answer:
0.998 is the probability that the average money spent by a sample of 40 shoppers is within $10 of the actual population mean.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
Standard Deviation, σ = $21.51
We are given that the distribution of average money spend is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.
Formula:
We have to find:
P( average money spent is within $10 of the actual population mean.)
Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,
Answer:
The speed of the boat in still water is 18 mph.
The speed of the current is 2 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the boat in still water.
Let y represent the speed of the current.
When the boat goes against the current, the speed is 16 mph. Assuming it traveled against the current while going upstream, its total speed would be (x - y) mph. It means that
x - y = 16 (equation 1)
Going downstream, the boat averages 20 mph. Assuming it traveled with the current, its total speed would be (x + y) mph. It means that
x + y = 20 (equation 2)
Adding both equations, it becomes
2x = 36
x = 36/2
x = 18 mph
Substituting x = 18 into equation 1, it becomes
18 - y = 16
y = 18 - 16
y = 2 mph
f(h(x))= 2x -21
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)= x^3 - 6
h(x)=\sqrt[3]{2x-15}
WE need to find f(h(x)), use composition of functions
Plug in h(x)
f(h(x))=f(\sqrt[3]{2x-15})
Now we plug in f(x) in f(x)
f(h(x))=f(\sqrt[3]{2x-15})=(\sqrt[3]{2x-15})^3 - 6
cube and cube root will get cancelled
f(h(x))= 2x-15 -6= 2 x-21
